During the event, PRO Group executive director Dave Workman announced what he termed as his group’s “strategic arrangement” with eBay, to take effect sometime within the first quarter. “2012 needs to be about increased profitability.”

Workman told Dealerscope/CustomRetailer, “It’s the second-most trafficked site in the CE business. We believe this partnership will provide our dealers with a way to bring their storefronts in front of many more customers. Our objective is to bring the brick-and-mortar experience to the Internet world.”
